Abstract:
Objective To analyze the internal fixator remove time in different age patients after non-fusion cross injured vertebral screw of thoracolumbar vertebral fracture. Methods Sixty-eight patients who had underwent non-fusion cross injured vertebral screw were divided into 2 group according to the age:young group (20-44 years, 36 cases) and middle aged group (45-59 years, 32 cases). The numeric rating score (NRS), Oswestry disablility index (ODI), discoideum index (DI) and kyphotic Cobb angle 6, 9, 12 and 15 months after surgery were compared between 2 groups. Results The kyphotic Cobb angle, ODI and NRS 9, 12 and 15 months after surgery in 2 groups were significantly lower than those 6 months after surgery, which was in young group: (37.34 ± 6.86)° , (36.81 ± 6.78)° and (36.90 ± 6.97)° vs. (56.31 ± 3.56)° , (2.45 ± 0.55)%, (2.24 ± 0.53)% and (2.09 ± 0.41)% vs. (3.02 ± 0.89)%, (18.46 ± 2.73), (18.44 ± 3.05) and (18.28 ± 2.98) scores vs. (19.79 ± 2.85) scores, and in middle aged group: (37.11 ± 6.80)° , (35.58 ± 5.48)° and (35.40 ± 5.44)° vs. (56.03 ± 3.68)° , (2.21 ± 0.41)%, (2.08 ± 0.43)%and (1.97 ± 0.39)%vs. (3.04 ± 0.93)%, (19.17 ± 2.99), (18.57 ± 2.98) and (18. 43 ± 2.92) scores vs. (20.95 ± 2.49) scores. There were statistical differences (P<0.05). The DI 12 and 15 months after surgery in young group were significantly lower than that 6 and 9 months after surgery:(50.59 ± 4.60)%and (47.57 ± 4.30)%vs. (56.60 ± 3.98)%and (56.32 ± 3.87)%, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). The DI 15 months after surgery in middle aged group was significantly lower than that 6, 9 and 12 months after surgery:(47.95 ± 4.87)%vs. (56.34 ± 3.97)%, (56.13 ± 3.88)%and (55.63 ± 3.94)%, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). Conclusions The internal fixator remove time in the young patients after non-fusion of cross injured vertebral screw of thoracolumbar vertebral fracture is 9 months after surgery, and in the middle aged patients is 12 months after surgery. Intervertebral disc degeneration is one of the risk factors for delayed removal.
